Guess the trope.: Everyone Get In Here

We got a picture misuse that seems to be based just on what the name looks like, instead of the actual trope.

Pardon me if I'm wrong, but if the picture is the problem, then this should belong in the Image Pickins Forum, right?

I think there's a thread about it there too.

I see a different issue, the issue being that the description is completely incomprehensible. Am I the only one who thinks that?

Yeah, the description is bad, and the trope is far more specific than the name would indicate.

How about Crowded-Cast Shot?

That seems simplest. And at 16 wicks, we can do whatever the hell we want.

Crowded-Cast Shot seems to work well enough for me.

This is just Team Shot For Loads And Loads Of Characters?

Summoning The Cast?

Crowded-Cast Shot sounds just fine to me.

Erm, seems to me it doesn't necessarily have to be a visual shot, just more like cramming the main cast into one situation.

"In response to some summons, event, or strange series of coincidences, the show's entire cast winds up in a single shot, often cramped into an enclosed space." It has to be a single visual shot.

So Same But More of Team Shot basically...

Is it a picture of them or just a gathering?

It's just a gathering. Not a Team Shot, but just everyone being called by a higher up for a meeting. That type of situation.

Gather The Huge Cast?

Summoning The Cast and Gather The Huge Cast both sound good. It really isn't a 'portrait' as much as a 'meeting'.

I totally love Harvey Birdman Attorney At Law, and I'm sad to see this reference go, but I agree the name is completely nonsensical to anyone who hasn't seen the show. Though we should probably keep the name as a redirect.

How about like, The Gangs All Here? I kind of liked Crowded-Cast Shot.

The problem with a lot of these names is that they reference the cast being together but not the command for them all to meet, which seems to be one of the key elements to this trope.

It doesn't have to be a command to meet.

Yeah, that's what skimming the page will get you...in that case, Summoning The Cast may not work as well.

I'm thinking Crowded-Cast Shot will work.

Bumping for resolution, and backlog clearing.

No one's disputing that this needs to be renamed, and if they were Fast Eddie would shoot them down, so here's an alt-title crowner.

Everyone Get In Here is now a redirect for Crowded-Cast Shot, the wicks should be fixed, there is now a new Quotes page in place of the one for Everyone Get In Here which is now on the cutlist, and there are notes about the change on the Renamed Tropes page and in the renamed tropes thread. I could not find a normal or archived discussion to move.

Feel free to check my work here in case I made any mistakes trying to rename this trope.
